In the contemporary era, cloud computing has emerged as an eminent technology that offers on-demand services anytime and anywhere over the internet. Cloud environment allows organizations to scale their application based on demand. Traditionally, monolithic approach of application development has begun to face various bottlenecks and challenges. This has promoted a shift to a new paradigm, micro-service architecture for the development of cloud-based applications, which is gaining popularity due to decoupled independent services. Micro-service architecture contemplates overcoming the limited scalability of monolithic architecture. In this paper, a multitenant booking application is designed and developed using both monolithic and micro-service architecture as a case study. The application is deployed as Docker container images on Google cloud platform. The comparison of various factors, such as performance, scalability, load balancing, reliability, resource utilization, and infrastructure cost is performed. JMeter is used as a load generation and performance testing tool. Performance analysis in terms of response time is done for the multitenant booking application. Results indicate that independent scaling of micro-services leads to effective utilization of resources unlike the monolithic approach. |
